Should have got your invites out earlier. ;)


And I thought there was potential Prometheus viewing that weekend as well...

Collectormania, prometheus, 2 military shows, my dads birthday, I'm supposed to be working AND a big Airsoft event I've been waiting for for ages!

I really didn't want that weekend lol.

Invitations are going out soon, but as there's so much going on I understand that people probably won't be able to make it.

Hopefully doing this as well though still looking for a hotel. Cooper offered to let me stay at his but was gonna book a hotel as back up just in case. We stayed at I think it was a Travel Lodge in the centre but their rooms there at the mo are like £150 a night which is outrageous as we only paid like £20 each a night last time!

We can see Prometheus the next weekend if needed.

Since this is the weekend of the wedding, I can't see too many of us getting to CM:MK.

Anyway, we can dress up as Aliens, Marines and Preds at the wedding, right?

Sam the:
Milton Keynes Shenley Church End Travelodge
Burchard Crescent
Shenley
Church End
Milton Keynes
Buckinghamshire
MK5 6HQ

Is nice and cheap and easy drive to the event also. About 3 - 5 minute drive.



Ok due to the fact Rich wedding is on this weekend I think many UKCM will not go to this event. I myself would like to got to the wedding.

I saw Lance was announced and squeed slightly. Last time I met him I told him I was trying to get my marine armour together. And now I have it.

Lance is extremely nice and grateful to fans. I know this 1st hand, as I am sure many others of us do. I think it is awesome Thomas Dekker, and Olivia D' Abo will be there, along with some many other great guests. It is to bad I am in the US both those are 2 People I would love to meet, along with Jason Momoa and Sean Astin

I can't make the wedding weekend as I'll be at the llama park, getting the stuff ready for the South of England Show at Ardingly from the following Thursday.

My work mate Shahab asked me today if I'd like to go to this on the Friday (with him driving up and back), so put me and him down for the Friday. :)

Had a great but tiring day. :)

Met Sam (naurarwen) there, in her Hunger Games cosplay costume. :)

Lance recognised me, but didn't recognise Wierzbowski at first when Trevor turned up in the afternoon. :D
After Trevor spoke to him he then beamed at him and they hugged. :)

We're having drinks with Lance and Trevor at the hotel bar this evening, before he has to attend the Con Party, where Trevor was invited to attend to pose for pics and sign autographs. 8)


Edit: Huh, my profile pic has changed. Wonder what's up with that? Will check it when back home, as the original Bug Stomper pic is on my PC I think.

Jason Momoa (actor from Game of Thrones) is good fun, even at the signing table. :)
He swears a lot. :D

Following my dinner with Lance at D*Con last year (paid for by Lance), I wanted to return the favour, but Lance was scheduled to attend the official Con Party from 8pm (food & drink supplied), so we agreed to meet in the hotel bar beforehand.

Got there at 6:30pm to find Lance, Jason and Trevor telling various stories to and answering questions from anyone there.

Managed to pay for a round of drinks, then Lance paid for the next one. After that I was tipsy-drunk (after just two pints of Stella :oops:) then we left as the bar cleared when they went off to the party. :D

Quite a day/night. 8)

Pics to follow.

I had to use the 12x zoom on my camera, as a Showmasters crew wouldn't let me stand closer as I wasn't paying for an autograph right then. :roll:

I'd already got Lance to sign my special edition DVD set of Near Dark earlier. 8)

Nice pic PVB!

Just got back.
Didn't know I was going until this morning but had a great time!

Met Superman (Brandon Routh) and Lance. Both were nice and even got a pic with Lance!
Whoever posted the link to the "Gut Milk?" Tshirt gets an extra thanks from me, Lance seemed to like it. :)
